PEMF Therapy Gives 13-Year-Old German Shepherd a Second Chance

PEMF Therapy Gives 13-Year-Old German Shepherd a Second Chance

“Our 13 year old German Shepherd tore her ACL on August 31st.    They didnt realize what it was until several weeks later and kept treating her with acupuncture and red light therapy.

She became worse and worse day by day.    Once we had a proper diagnosis 3 weeks later, we took her for PRP injections, which were successful on her for the same injury 2 years prior.

Two weeks after the PRP injections she was doing quite bad.  She has not been able to stand or walk more than 3 steps since weeks.   So my husband and I  have been carrying her in and out for weeks now and its killing our backs, but its our girl :-)

Last Saturday we went back to the vet again and were going to try underwater treadmill therapy.   The vet refused and said she was too weak, but said lets try this mat (your mat)

I was skeptical because I had never heard of it nor heard anything about it, and reluctantly agreed.   I would do anything to help her.

They put her on the mat for 1 hour on Saturday.    We took her home and 6 hours later she stood up alone and started walking across the room.   I thought I had lost my mind and was seeing things.  I immediately went to your website and ordered the mat.    The vet suggested it during our visit, but I wanted to see if it helped first.

The next 48 hours after the mat treatment she has literally improved hour by hour and can now walk a small distance with falling over and her personality is coming back loud and clear :-).  She is definitely feeling better as a result of the mat.

Attached is a picture of her when she was a little younger.”
